Ah the floral things. I have always referred to them as “flourishes,” I never knew what to search for when I was trying to figure out how to first do them. I haven’t hit up that site but I will. Pretty much the only AE tutorials I have used were on CreativeCow.com.

The two different flourishes in the video were cut from images we had. The “corners” were ones that Chris had in a PS file and I cut it up in PS and brought in the layers. The flourishes that are more 3D in the video were ones I tweaked from a file I had in AI but not from scratch. I cut it up into layers in AI and brought it in.

I have made some of those in the past but was under time constraints with this one. All that are in the video aside from the end corners I did at the end of day when I had to have it done. I had “finished” and had about two hours left and was just trying to make the video a little less boring.

One of my main goals this summer is my demo reel. Got enough stuff to piece something together. I will probably keep Moncus involved as he has creative vision, and in effect I’m sure I will have you offer advice.

But the Evolution thing… the vector floral things you used remind me of an animated stock art set from VideoCopilot.net – popular After Effects tutorial / product site. Very useful stuff I might add. Your style dictates you might glean a lot off of his free tutorials, if you haven’t already checked them out. Did you (or Moncus) make those vector shapes? Impressive if you did.

Mikey… Evolution and polar coordinates? I dunno what you mean by evolution. And I didn’t use any polar coordinates. I used a camera and moved it around the text objects. And good idea on the rotating background, I started to use that but I felt it was too much movement and distracted from the text that was changing pretty quickly. I wanted to make sure people were reading.

Mikey I need to see some of your stuff, I hear good things.

Ah yes Evolution and trendy polar coordinates… should’ve known. And of course Angels and Airwaves? I see you in all your glorious design nakedness.

Nicely composed. Personally, would have added a slight rotation to the background, along with some swoosh sfx.

P.S. I added your blog to my RSS feed. Can’t wait for a regular dose of the ultimate Travisty.
